Cebu is an island province in Central Visayas and one of the most developed provinces of the Philippines. It has a rich and colorful past. The famed Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan, on his quest to reach the Spice Islands, docked in Cebu in 1521. Long before the Spaniards arrived, Cebu was already inhabited by people who engaged in trade with other Asian civilizations in what are now known as China, Japan, India, Burma, and Malaysia; hence, the island became known as “Cebu” from the old Cebuano word “Sibu”, which means “trade”. Such is the proud history of Cebu, where I am taking you now, to introduce you to an initiative that aims to feed communities in a sustainable way.
